Tennyson's poem about the sea

When I wasn't taking pictures of dogs at Lorne - missing Penny and thinking how much she would have liked to be there - I was photographing the cliffs and the rocky outcrops.



The coast along The Great Ocean Road is a photographer's paradise!

The rocky part of the shore made me think of the sad poem by Alfred, Lord Tennyson that a long-ago teacher made me memorise. (I'm glad to have had such a tough-loving teacher!) It's called Break, Break, Break.

Maggie and Mitch, though it pains me to say this, perhaps I had a more relaxing time without Penny! I'm sure I wouldn't have taken the dozens of photos I did, because I would have been playing with Penny and enjoying being in the moment rather than being contemplative.
